'School Night for Scouts' Tells Program for Cubs, Boys Wednesday “School Night for Scouts” was held last Wednesday evening at the Washington grade school. This was a Portland area-wide event with emphasis on explaining the scouting program to interested parents and boys. Troop 201 presented the flag and led the group in the salute. Darrold Proehl outlined the program and introduced Melvin Schwab, Cubmaster, and Robert C. Lindsay, Scout representative, who in turn, introduced their com­ mittees, den mothers, and other helpers. Applications were given out and Cub Scouts were reminded they are to fill out a new registration form, even if they have been in the pack before. These registra­ tion blanks for Cubs are to be turned in at the first pack meet­ ing, the date for which will be an­ nounced later. Registration blanks will be available at the first pack meeting, but, if possible, boys should be registered before this time, so that dens may be organ­ ized. Registration fee for both Scout organizations is fifty cents, with a subscription to the Boy’s Life magazine optional at $1.50. Several people from the Mist area were present and it is hoped more boys will be able to join the Vernonia group. Boy Scouts meet at the Scout cabin every Wednesday evening at 7:00 p.m. under the leadership of Donald Cameron. Two very clever and well-pre­ sented skits were given by the Boy Scouts. Scouts are a good “going group” in Vernonia with capable leaders, and boys are urged to join now as the new scouting year starts.

Law Regulates Address Change Oregon drivers were reminded this week that the law now re­ quires drivers to apply for a du­ plicate driver’s license if they change their address. A new law, which took effect last year, requires drivers to ap­ ply within 30 days after the change of address. A fee of 25c is required. Application for a duplicate li­ cense showing the new address can be made at a Department of Motor Vehicles field office or to any driver license examiner.

Envelopes with Metal Banned An announcement by the Post Office department states that ef­ fective immediately all envelopes containing bottle caps, metal lids, metal strips and all like material will be withdrawn from the mail and returned to the sender, if a return address is shown, or sent to the dead letter office if no re­ turn address is shown. Material of this type has been declared un­ mailable in envelopes, due to damage to cancelling machines, and must be mailed in cartons or boxes with adequate protective material around them. COL. Sterling K. fhsiminger, dis­ trict engineer with the U. S. army corps of engineers, was one of fea­ tured speakers at Riviera restau­ rant where county lour ended with dinner. CHOICE OF REMEDIES At law every “wrong” has a remedy, and sometimes more than one. Sometimes the law gives you the choice of more than one “ rem edy. ” Suppose you buy a can of fo o d w hich m akes you sick. If the c a n n e r had been n e g li­ gent in putting up the food, he may be liable. (A “tort” rem­ edy.) Or the grocer may have breached his implied contract to sell you food that is fit to eat. (A “contract” remedy.) You may “ elect” which of the two remedies—tort or con­ tract, or sometimes both—you will evoke in seeking damages. Again, (1) you may claim that you bought a car based on the seller’s fradulent mis­ representations that the motor was just reconditioned. You might try to cancel your agree­ ment and get your money back; you could claim that there never was a binding con­ tract since it was obtained on fraud. (2) Or you might keep the car and claim that the seller did not carry out his part of a valid contract. You call for the seller to pay for, or put in a new motor. In the old days, as the plain­ tiff you had to choose your remedy and stick to it. You couldn't claim both of two in­ consistent remedies. But today the plaintiff often Thus, Brown in laying a pipe trespassed on Black's proper­ ty. Black sued and got money damages.

So in the case where you bought the defective car, if you could not prove fraud (where you denied there was a contract), you might go on and prove breach of a valid contract and get a new motor. As a rule, one can make a choice of remedies any time up to judgment. After that, win or lose, the plaintiff’s choice be­ comes final. He cannot sue and lose on one theory, and turn, around and on the same facts choose to sue seeking another remedy. Oernonia Eagle Atlas Spark Plugs FAST, FAIR, FRIENDLY F a s t s e rv ic e .

Michael Hobart Now In Mexico Michael Hobart, a freshman from Vernonia, is just beginning to find out what life in Mexico is like as he begins his work as a member of Lewis and Clark’s first group of students participat­ ing in the new independent study program in foreign countries. The 57 freshmen and 53 upper­ classmen received a week of final instruction on campus before leav­ ing in five groups—two to Japan and one each to Chile, Peru and Mexico. Their study program in­ cludes the culture, customs and language of the four countries and a choice of other courses adapted by 12 departments for independent study. Five L-C professors are traveling with the groups and, along with the Expermental Internatonal Liv­ ing directors, will assist them with their studies. The travelers will spend one month in the home of a native family. Field trips, guest speakers, interviews with local and national leaders and individual re­ search will round out the study program. Program director Gabe W. Lew­ is, international student advisor, h x announced completion of plans for semester of study in England next spring. Hobart and 42 other LC students bound for Latin America traveled by bus to El Paso and continued on by train to Mexico City where he will be making his home-stay and conducting his studies. He is the son of Dr. and Mrs. Thomas Mac Hobart, Vernonia. Landforce says that before the hunting season ends more than 350,000 hunters are expected to be in the fields.
